Getting to start over is the scret sauce, no doubt!

It also helps if the language idiomatically nudges you in the right direction.

Indirection tends to be minimized in Go, similar to C, and encourages solving your immediate problem.

Comparatively, Java and C++ encourages you to design/grab for reuse first, opting for flexibility.

IME Java devs will write idiomatic OOP in this style, just like Lispers will fiddle with macros. For us, picking Go helped signal that we wanted people who wrote procedural, direct-first code.
